Zani, the Blazing Nightwalker

At daytime, this girl is a usual office worker. When nights fall upon the city, WuWa Zani turns into a justice warrior. She walks around the dark streets and battle all sorts of evil.

The materials for Zani in WuWa 2.3 are the following.

Zani battles with her huge shield, which deals a lot of damage. One of her skills is to make a short break mid-fight and increase momentum of her attacks. Naturally, the shield can reflect attacks.

In a Wuthering Waves team, Zani is the main DPS character. She can deal damage to all Spectro Frazzle stacks at once and convert them into her special energy to use in the Inferno Mode.

Blazing Justice is a new 5-star Gauntlets Weapon in WuWa 2.3. It has been designed specifically for Zani.

The background of Zani in Wuthering Waves 2.3 is revealed via a special Companion Story: A Blaze in the Dark.

Ciaccona: The beauty of poetry and music

As a gifted musician, Ciaccona can pick up any instrument and immediately figure out how to make music with it. While traveling across the Wuthering Waves world, Ciaccona creates poetry inspired by her experiences.

She uses music in WuWa 2.3 adventures as well. Her microphone can become a weapon, but the girl also uses other instruments. A unique feature of Ciaccona’s basic attack is a special note that gathers opponents in the center.

Ciaccona buffs WuWa teams with extra Aero DMG. The energy of her concert applies Aero Erosion or Spectro Frazzle on opponents. Ciaccona is great for chain combos.

In Version 2.3, Wuthering Waves introduces a new weapon: the 5-star Pistol Woodland Aria. It looks a lot like a musical instrument, so Ciaccona loves using it.
